Port Lincoln is a popular destination for cruise ships. The 2024/25 cruise ship season will run from 2 October 2024 through to 2 April 2025, with 11 ships expected to visit our port.
With each ship visit there is approximately 2500 passengers and 1000 crew that disembark and visit the city. These large numbers of visitors significantly increase the number of people in the CBD, which is positively managed as apart of our Cruise Ship Welcome Programed with the wonderful assistance from local volunteers. In previous years Port Lincoln has received accolades as being voted as best port by passengers according to South Australian Tourism Commission market research.
From the ship it is approximately a 10 minute walk along our beautiful foreshore to the CBD. There is also plenty of things to see and do to enjoy our picturesque city.
